  2. You're not going to notice any difference unless your CAT5 cable is around 100 meters or you are running it parallel to a power cable that's not shielded properly. You should be more than fine good sir.
  3. When I did for my stream was buy a video template from pond5 and edited it to my liking. It kind of shows you what a finished product looks like in After Effects and makes it easier to work with. I've always been a reverse engineer kind of person rather than learn something from the ground up so this works great for me. Hope this helps.
  4. Good choice on the 5820K. Those extra cores really help for editing.
  5. Couldn't agree more mate. If you take this mindset and apply it to all aspects of your life you will do great things, and never second guess whether or not you gave it your all.
  6. Really not much of a business plan mate, this is more of just a hobby that if I get good enough at and am able to produce good quality work then I'd look into monetizing it. Eventually I'll get into aerial drone photography with this this GH4 and a S1000, that's why i don't want to get a higher end camera that weighs more. From what I've seen a GH4 can produce studio quality work given the right operator. Maybe one day I'll invest in a Ursa Mini or something of the sorts, but for now I think a GH4 offers a wide variety of additions that can be scaled logically and relatively affordably to produce better results.
  7. You should be able to share a wireless connection to a wired in windows 10 without any external software. I'm headed to bed but try this link below and let me know what happens. It should be that easy. It'd look like this...ISP MODEM >>> WIRELESS ROUTER >>> LAPTOP HOSTING BRIDGE connected via WIFI >>> DESKTOP connected to laptop via ethernet. http://www.wikihow.com/Bridge-an-Internet-Connection
  8. +1 for DOCSIS 3.0. Both look more than capable for your described uses. Just make sure to check with your ISP that they support that modem. Some ISPs only have option files and are able to support certain modem models. I would opt for a little more upload speed with that many users if any of them plan to do streaming on twitch or something similar. Otherwise, looks great mate.
  9. Thank you so much for the great advice mate, you articulate your points very well and make the topics very easy to understand. You always seem to be a step ahead of what I'm thinking with your reply, it's awesome! On that note...What's your take on using a Aputure Lensregain DEC? I looked at the Metabones as well but the capability of the Aputure is amazing, for video work being able to remotely control your focus without touching the camera on a gimbal seems awesome. Not to mention cheaper and better performance. I was going to pair it with a Sigma 18-35mm f1/8 but the Zhiyun Crane gimbal I selected wouldn't support the weight. Following your advice I looked into prime lenses and think the Tamron 35mm f1/8 will do just fine, pairing with the Aputure should really help with the poor low light performance that the GH4 is known for. Grant it does have Tamron's version of OIS, I haven't heard of any loss of quality. Thoughts from an expert? PS: I'm in love with that gimbal lol.
  10. After much research I've settled on a GH4. While I would like to go for a Sony A7S II, I can't justify the extra $1,200. That's not to say the internal 5x IS wouldn't be awesome. To counter this I'm going to go for either a PANASONIC LUMIX G X Vario Lens, 12-35mm, F2.8 ASPH or the 35-100MM variant, their OIS is the major selling point for me. If I was going to go with one set of glass for quiet sometime which would you recommend, or maybe something else I'm not even considering. Thank you again for all the great information it's much appreciated mate!
  11. What does your network diagram look like?
  12. And I just noticed the sarcasm in your post by linking production grade equipment. Thanks for that, but I will totally take a look at some of your other guides linked in your signature.
  13. Thanks for the pointers on the equipment! I will take a look at them. Is the market totally saturated? Totally, in every way. But if everyone who wanted to make a difference didn't even try because there was already someone else doing it then nothing great would ever be done. It's just a hobby that I enjoy and have the ability to pursue. Will I be YouTube famous one day? Probably not, but as long as the journey is fun and I pick up a few skills and hobbies along the way than I'm happy.
  14. Thanks for the Reply Qube! I watched Linus's video yesterday on "4K is it worth it?" and that left me with even more questions. It really does seem that unless I'm spending $5K+ on a professional grade camera I won't see any measurable difference between upscaled 1080P footage and native 4K. What are your thoughts on this? Definitely going to be utilizing the adobe suite, I'm familiar with the basics and it seems to be the industry standard. For lighting gear I've got a Fancierstudio UL9004SB-69BWG Kit that I use for my green screen set up and streaming, do you think this will be sufficient for high quality product reviews and vlogging? As far as cameras go I was thinking of getting a video camera that's capable of filming in 4K and taking awesome stills as well. My budget will be around $1.5K for all the things, not including storage which I've got covered with existing hardware. Some of the ones I was consider are the Panasonic HC-WX970k, Sony FDR-AX100, Sony FDRAX33, or even a action camera but I'm not sure that quality of those for what I'm trying to do. Something worth noting is I'll be using the camera as a video input for live streaming as well, if I'm investing this kind of money into a camera it makes sense to get rid of my old C920.
  15. I'm working on implementing DMVPN on my company's WAN and was wondering if other people here may have implemented it and what issues they were trying to fix by doing so.
